Chapter 22 - 22
Even if that guy did not ask me to protect Justin, I will still protect him. After all, he's my omega—he will be my omega.
I frowned when that man's face suddenly popped into my mind again. He looked concerned and worried about Justin. Is he his ex?
Several thoughts that were starting to hurt me little by little were running on my mind. What if Justin likes men like him? We're totally different. Should I change myself to suit his tastes? What exactly is his type anyway?
"Tristan," Justin called my name. I did not realize that he was already standing in front of me. "O-Oh, hi," I said and smiled as I fixed my posture. He looks very cute today. I mean, he's always cute, but I think he looks extra cute today.
Hooo... I hope this day goes as I planned.
"So, where are we going?" He asked as he looked at me with curious eyes. I smiled and opened the door for him. "You'll see." I winked and he just shook his head while smiling before getting in.
I closed the door and then opened the door for the driver's seat and got in, too.
I'm not really an expert when it comes to stuff like this, so the only ideas that came into my mind were like the dates in cliche romantic movies.
I've been binge watching romance movies yesterday to know how dates actually are, and honestly, I'm really glad that I did. This is the first time I've ever initiated something like this and I never really went on dates with my exes.
I drove to the movies and when we got there, I asked him to choose the movie he wants to see and the snack that he wants to eat. "Hmm... This," he said as he pointed an action movie.
Uh... That wasn't what I expected at all.
I thought he's choose a horror or romcom movie, but instead, he chose an action movie.
"Okay," I said and smiled. "And for the snacks, I'll have..." He paused for a while as if he was still thinking about what he's gonna eat.
He face me and what he said made me feel like my heart was gonna jump out of my throat.
"... you." He winked.
W-What?
I probably look so flustered right now. Why in the world would he say that? I feel like my heart is about to explode right now.
Did he mean that? But... this is a public place. Can we even do it here?
He laughed and then covered his mouth to stop himself from laughing more. "I'm just kidding!" He said and removed his hand when he stopped laughing.
I feel so embarrassed right now. What was I even thinking? It's not like it's even possible to have sex inside the theater. There are a lot of people inside, so how could we even do it there?
Tristan, you horny bastard.
JUSTIN'S POINT OF VIEW:
"What would you like to watch?" He asked as we looked at the movies available today. I looked at them one by one, and decided to pick the action movie. "Hmm... This," I said as I pointed the title of the movie. "Okay," He said and smiled.
Hmm... He looks way too composed. Should I make him feel flustered and nervous?
"And for the snacks, I'll have..." I paused, acting like I was thinking about what to eat.
"... you," I continued and winked.
I wasn't sure how he would react to this. But if he blushes because of what I said, then that probably means that he likes me. From what I've experienced with my exes before, they react when I do or say something like that.
And just like them, Tristan reacted that way too.
His face looks so red and his eyes were wide with shock. He swallowed hard as he stared at me. It's like he's shocked but confused at the same time because of what I said. His heart is probably racing right now, haha.
I really want to squeal and laugh out loud because of his reaction. This is so funny yet cute at the same time!
I covered my mouth to stop myself from laughing. I really have to do this or else I might actually laugh out loud right now.
When I finally regained my composure, I spoke again. "I'm just kidding!" I said and removed my hand.
He breathed out as if he stopped breathing earlier. This makes the whole thing funnier! "Don't tease me like that," he mumbled as he looked away while still blushing.
He's so cute.
*****
After watching the movie, we ate dinner at a fancy restaurant. It was too fancy that I felt very uncomfortable because of the atmosphere there. I felt like I'm gonna choke on my food if I continued eating. I've never been to a restaurant like that, so I can't really deny that I felt uncomfortable as we ate. The people who ate there also looked very wealthy. But still... I couldn't tell him that I felt that way since it might seem rude to him especially because he's the one paying.
Thankfully, we already left and we're currently inside his car, on our way to Daryl's house.
Or at least that's what I thought.
This isn't the way to Daryl's house. I stopped looking at the window and looked at him. "Where are we going?" I asked. Before he answered me, he stopped the car and turned to me to smile. "Here."
He got off the car and quickly ran to open the door for me, so before I could even open the door myself, he had already opened it. I got off the car and looked around the place.
"Here?" I said while looking around.
This is... a park? I don't really go here since it's far from the condo Daryl and I used to live in, but I've been here before. "Why are we here?" I asked him. "I want to take a walk with you," he said and smiled.
Well that was cute.
I couldn't help but smile because of what he said.. Does he want to spend more time with me or am I just overthinking things? Whatever the reason is, it still feels good to take a walk once in a while especially right now because he's with me.
